Abstract

Conventional approaches for collecting and reporting hematological data as well as diagnosing hematologic malignancies such as leukemia, anemia, e.t.c are based on subjective professional physician personal opinions or experiences which are influenced by human error, dependent on human-to-human judgments, time consuming processes and the blood results are non-reproducible. In the light of those human limitations identified, an automatic or semi-automatic classification and corrective method is required because it reduces the load on human observers and accuracy is not affected due to fatigue. Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) as a multi-disciplinary subject that focuses on the reuse of past experiences or cases to proffer solution to new cases was adopted and combined with the power of Fuzzy logic to design a software model that will effectively mine hematology data. This study aim at helping the medical practitioners to diagnose and provide corrective treatment to both normal patients and patients with hematology disorder at the early stage which can reduce the number of deaths. This aim is achievable by developing an intelligent expert system based on fuzzy logic and case-based reasoning for classification of hematology malignancy.
